I don’t know how else to have titled it. I noticed the small blurb about the crazy check contained in the larger story about the gun.

All I was interested in was the crazy check part. It was lagniappe!

I agree with you dear. Many is the time when the title on an article did not *FOCUS* on the point that I considered more important. This is what some people refer to as "burying the lede".

I don't *WANT* people to focus on details that I regard as secondary in importance, I want them to focus on details that I consider more significant.

Many's the time I posted an article in which I put a better title on it, and an Administrator came along and changed it so that it no longer focused on the essential aspect I was trying to convey. It in fact, ruined the entire purpose for which I posted the article in the first place.

In this case, I think it is very important that the focus be on the fact that this criminal, along with millions of other criminals, are fed and clothed because of Lyndon Johnson's vote buying scheme of 1964.

We've spent 21 trillion on the war on poverty, and only created more poverty, and a bigger criminal class. The government should stop paying these worthless people to keep producing more worthless and dangerous people.
